Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Study has been made of the electrochemical reduction of the salts of trans-1,2-diphosphonioethene on the dropping Hg electrode in protogenic and aprotic media.

  2. 2.

    It has been shown that stable radical anions result from the first, reversible one-electron stage of the reduction of disalts in aprotic media. A scheme is proposed to describe the reduction mechanism.
